Another 13 years passed by quickly.
At this moment, in the Eternal Peak.
Tian Yongheng had just broken through to the Third Stage of Void Refinement Realm.
As he stabilized his cultivation, he looked ahead at the status panel reflecting his stats.
[Name: Tian Yongheng]
[Race: Mortal]
[Lifespan: 336/16,723]
[Cultivation: Third Stage of Void Refinement Realm.]
[Constitution: Five-Elemental Divine Spiritual Physique.]
[Bloodline: Jade Pure Bloodline (Descendant of the Celestial Venerable of Primordial Beginning).]
[Innate Talent(s): Sword Heart, Primordial Meridians and Primordial Bones.]
He looked at his lifespan and nodded in satisfaction. The increase in lifespan with each minor realm breakthrough was more than 500 years now, and it would undoubtedly become a thousand years after reaching the Nascent Soul Realm.
The future seems bright!
He cheered up inwardly to avert his attention from the upcoming events.
Right now, there were less than 50 years left for the Qingyun Dao Conference!
He had to breakthrough to the mid stages of Void Refinement Realm by then!
At this moment, Tian Yongheng silently decided in his heart that he would go into seclusion after dealing with the current matters of the Eternal Peak, leaving them to Yan Jingfei and the others, and only come out just before the time for the Dao Conference was here.
He should be able to improve by leaps and bounds in that time.
Thinking of this, his sense of security increased a bit as he checked out the current situation of Eternal Peak.
All the disciples were diligently cultivating and doing their jobs.
The overall strength had improved a bit and the yearly revenue had also exceeded a hundred High-Grade Spirit Stones quite some time ago as more and more disciples stepped into higher realms.
Right now, there were already more than a thousand Acquired Realm cultivators, while the average disciple’s cultivation ranged from the mid to later stages of Foundation Establishment Realm.
In the last few years, more and more factions nearby had sworn allegiance to the Eternal Peak, including tens of Acquired Realm factions, which made many things easier for both sides.
The top disciples aside from Personal Disciples were all in the Acquired Realm, waiting for an opportunity to be taken in as a disciple by any high ranking figure of the Eternal Peak.
Yan Jingfei was in the midst of her breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm, while Lu Qingfeng had also achieved a minor breakthrough recently.
Liu Ruoxue was also immersed in her cultivation, enjoying the feeling of constantly getting stronger, and had already stepped into the Eighth Stage of Acquired Realm. It had been many years since he last saw her, mainly because she didn’t even come out of her cave abode.
Tian Yunchen was also constantly getting more powerful with the Connate Providences bestowed upon him by Tian Yongheng. He was already in the Ninth Stage of Golden Core Realm, and was cultivating to reach its peak before attempting to breakthrough to the Void Refinement Realm.
He would be the second Void Refinement Realm cultivator of the Eternal Peak after Tian Yongheng!
Tian Yongheng couldn’t help but feel good thinking of that. The Eternal Peak won’t just rely on him then, and there would be someone else to protect it if he wasn’t here.
At this point, his Divine Sense suddenly locked onto Su Yanlan who was sitting outside of his cave abode.
She had already reached the Golden Core Realm!
Even she herself was shocked when she realized that she had already broken through to the Golden Core Realm, and that too in less than half the time it took her to breakthrough a single minor realm in the Innate Realm.
It seemed to her that the new environment was really great for cultivation with abundant Spirit Qi, far better than her former environment.
She even suspected that what Tian Yongheng said about her being connected to the Upper Realm may very well be true.
Right now, she was stabilizing her cultivation base at the First Stage of Golden Core Realm.
It seemed as if she had turned more than ten years younger after her breakthrough, looking to be in her early twenties.
Aa expected. The talent of someone from the Upper Realm truly cannot be underestimated.
Tian Yongheng thought silently, nodding in approval.
Since she achieved the goal Tian Yongheng gave her, she was already a member of the Eternal Peak, the Second Supreme!
She was also the third person in Eternal Peak to reach the Golden Core Realm after him and Tian Yunchen.

And since Yan Jingfei was also about to breakthrough, then there will be a total of 3 Golden Core Realm cultivators in the Eternal Peak excluding him as he was already in the Void Refinement Realm.
The Eternal Peak was on its way of becoming a great power within a few hundred years!
He thought smugly before calling Su Yanlan in from the outside.
Hearing his voice, she was startled and quickly got up from her meditative state.
Soon, she appeared in front of him.
Seeing his face, she couldn’t help but be charmed yet again, despite having already seen him before.
She quickly cupped her fists and bowed before speaking in a tone of voice filled with reverence, "Senior, I’ve broken through to the Golden Core Realm just as you instructed."
"Yes, I bestow you with the position of the Second Supreme of Eternal Peak. Go and pick out any mountain peak where you want to build a cultivation place for yourself." Tian Yongheng said without even opening his eyes.
Hearing his words, Su Yanlan was pleasantly surprised as she hastily stood up. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly turned around and spoke in a low voice, "Seni..Peak Master, can you accept the Luminous Jade Chamber as a subsidiary force of the Eternal Peak?
I know that we have wronged you greatly in the past, and it is already your magnanimity that I could enter the Eternal Peak, but I wish to leave a way out for the Luminous Jade Chamber too.
There have been attacks on many factions by demonic cultivators, and they are up to no good. My master, who’s also the Supreme Elder of the Luminous Jade Chamber, is a Golden Core Realm cultivator, and there are many Innate Realm and Acquired Realm members within too, I’m sure they can be helpful to the development of the Eternal Peak.
Of course, the choice depends on you if you want to accept them or not."
She appeared to be calm, but inside, she was extremely nervous saying this. She was afraid of offending Tian Yongheng.
However, she couldn’t just forget about the place where she had been raised since young. Getting connected with the Eternal Peak was a great opportunity, and she definitely did not want them to miss that.
Tian Yongheng was somewhat shocked by her request.
It was indeed true that the Luminous Jade Chamber had schemed against him in the past, and even destroyed the Yan Immortal Dynasty in Yan Jingfei’s past life. But that did not mean they were evil.
Almost all factions plundered each other for resources. This was common in the cultivation world.
In fact, Su Yanlan seemed to be the type of woman who would never forget a favor. But Tian Yongheng couldn’t just count on that.
Su Yanlan’s favorability for him was at 5-Star right now, which meant that she won’t betray him under normal circumstances. Her favorability would increase over time, and with her great talents and current cultivation, she could become a pillar of the Eternal Peak in the near future. That was why he decided to accept her.
Otherwise, he would like to get rid of all enemies, no matter if they were in the past, as quickly as possible and not leave any loose ends. It was precisely because he could see if they had really turned over a new leaf or were just pretending to backstab him through the favorability meter.
After pondering over it for a while, Tian Yongheng let out a sigh inwardly as he said, "Alright, since the Luminous Jade Chamber is good for the current development of Eternal Peak, let’s do just that. You will be in charge of this as the Second Supreme. Get to know everyone in the meantime.
And yes, tell them that I’ll be entering seclusion for a period of time too, so they won’t come and disturb me."
He was not worried about Yan Jingfei taking it the wrong way. He knew that she was already mature enough to understand the reason behind the fact that benefits were above than meaningless grudges, as she had lived a full life before. Specially because they did not have any sort of life or death feud with each other in this life.
Hearing Tian Yongheng’s answer, Su Yanlan beamed with joy and then quickly left his cave abode, looking forward to her future life at the Eternal Peak.
